Hello,
should we use only the SPDX License Identifier and the list of
copyrights for new or license converted files, e.g.
/*
* SPDX-License-Identifier: BSD-2-Clause
*
* Copyright (C) <FIRST YEAR>, <LAST YEAR> <COPYRIGHT HOLDER>
*/
or should we append in addition the full BSD-2-Clause text to the file
headers?

I suggest to use a master COPYING file and use file headers without the
full license text.
